Swedish National Board of Forestry chose Cap Gemini Ernst & Young
Cap Gemini Ernst & Young Sverige AB and the Swedish National Board of Forestry have signed a general agreement regarding IT consulting services. The agreement is valid for 2002 with a possible extension during 2003.
27 February 2002
As the Swedish National Board of Forestry signed its first general agreement for IT consulting services, Cap Gemini Ernst & Young Sverige AB (CGE&Y) was selected as one of only two suppliers. The Swedish National Board of Forestry, located in Jönköping, is the Government’s expert authority that coordinates the work of eleven County Forestry Boards. The board works for a sustainable utilisation of the Swedish forests according to the guidelines given by the Parliament and the Government. This general agreement also comprises the County Forestry Boards.In its statement, the Swedish National Board of Forestry writes that CGE&Y’s strong local presence in Jönköping, combined with “their broad competence and strong recommendations from assignments at other authorities”, was the decisive factor.
- It feels good to sign a general agreement with the Swedish National Board of Forestry. The public sector is an important and growing business area for CGE&Y, and we will use our experience to develop the Swedish National Board of Forestry, said Peter Österlund, responsible for the co-operation with the client.
CGE&Y recently signed several general agreements in the public sector, e.g., with The Swedish Agency for Public Management, The Swedish Board of Agriculture, and four authorities located in Sundsvall.
